Lord, we are weary.

Behold, the Lord God comes with might, and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. He will tend his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in his arms; he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young.
—Isaiah 40: 10-11

Great God, Lord of all Creation,
kind Father beyond our imagining,
hear our prayer.

Father, Son and Holy Spirit, although we as a nation do no deserve Your mercy for our lawlessness, the crime of abortion, and the legalization of moral transgression, we who believe are humbled by Your grace and forgiveness to those who repent and keep faith in You. We offer these petitions for our dear country, fast becoming unrecognizable.

Father of us all, Who made all people in Your image, we cry with the families of the deceased in the two recent mass killings, the Ohio synagogue and the California country music club. We feel horror at the deaths of people and animals, and the loss of property of the working people in the western wildfires. And we mourn the loss of public virtue exemplified by ongoing malfeasance around the recent elections and the vows of catastrophic disruption by the incoming House leadership. The Brexit of our oldest ally is in danger of collapse, and Europe behaves like a surly teenager towards our President, having wrecked their continent as if it were the family car which imaginary parents would replace. We see our President looking fatigued.

It’s hard to remain hopeful and thankful; yet Your ways are higher than our ways, and Your thoughts are higher than our thoughts (Is. 55:9) As You did for Joseph, Lord, You can use what unbelievers intend for evil to bring about Your good. So we do offer our saddened hearts up to You again today, for the refreshment of our spirits. Use us to pray without ceasing for our nation, that America will return to You and renew her Christ-honoring values. May the People once again take power and realize their freedom and their obligation to bear witness to Truth.

Comfort, comfort my people, says your God. Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received from the Lord's hand double for all her sins. A voice cries: “In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain. And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
—Isaiah 40:1-5

We pray for clear, unrevisionist scriptural and civics education to spread like wildfire across our country, dear Lord, burning away the lies of satan and offering the needful opportunity to rebuild individual lives, consciences and spirits on the True Word. We pray that the decisions of the many judicial appointments made by our President will start to turn the tide of shared opinion towards the Eternal Truth. We pray that the consciences of the incoming elected officials will be enlivened by the Holy Spirit and humbled to the task of representing the People, not the party. We pray for justice for those devastated and wounded and for the families of the dead due to criminal acts. And we thank You for all that our President has already done to restore our economy, our military, and our sense of hope for the future of Constitutional republican governance.

If it be Your will, we pray for the construction of the southern border wall to be funded and completed quickly, and for citizenship once again to be a precious, respected and well-defined entity. And we pray for strength and revitalization of our President, Vice President and all who surround them committed to MAGA.

Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
—Isaiah 40:28-31

We thank You, Lord, for the families and friends with whom we will gather over the coming holidays. Give us truly thankful hearts and the patience and wisdom to deal charitably with our loved ones and with others in our communities who are lonely, needy or hungry. Make us a channel of Your peace.

In Jesus’ holy name we pray,

Amen.

Days of Elijah

These are the days of Elijah
Declaring the Word of the Lord
And these are the days of your servant Moses
Righteousness being restored

And though these are days of great trials
Of famine and darkness and sword
Still we are the voice in the desert crying
Prepare ye the way of the Lord!

Behold He comes! Riding on the clouds!
Shining like the sun! At the trumpet call
Lift your voice! It's the year of Jubilee!
And out of Zion's hill salvation comes!

And these are the days of Ezekiel
The dry bones becoming as flesh
And these are the days of your servant David
Rebuilding a temple of praise

And these are the days of the harvest
The fields are as white in the world
And we are the labourers in your vineyard
Declaring the word of the Lord!

Behold He comes! Riding on the clouds!
Shining like the sun! At the trumpet call
Lift your voice! It's the year of Jubilee!
And out of Zion's hill salvation comes!

There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!

Amen!!!

And this prayer I am led to repeat for us to pray to deal with our domestic enemies:

Psalm 94

[1] O LORD, thou God of vengeance,
thou God of vengeance, shine forth!
[2] Rise up, O judge of the earth;
render to the proud their deserts!
[3] O LORD, how long shall the wicked,
how long shall the wicked exult?
[4] They pour out their arrogant words,
they boast, all the evildoers.
[5] They crush thy people, O LORD,
and afflict thy heritage.
[6] They slay the widow and the sojourner,
and murder the fatherless;
[7] and they say, “The LORD does not see;
the God of Jacob does not perceive.”
[8] Understand, O dullest of the people!
Fools, when will you be wise?
[9] He who planted the ear, does he not hear?
He who formed the eye, does he not see?
[10] He who chastens the nations, does he not chastise?
He who teaches men knowledge,
[11] the LORD, knows the thoughts of man,
that they are but a breath.
[12] Blessed is the man whom thou dost chasten, O LORD,
and whom thou dost teach out of thy law
[13] to give him respite from days of trouble,
until a pit is dug for the wicked.
[14] For the LORD will not forsake his people;
he will not abandon his heritage;
[15] for justice will return to the righteous,
and all the upright in heart will follow it.
[16] Who rises up for me against the wicked?
Who stands up for me against evildoers?
[17] If the LORD had not been my help,
my soul would soon have dwelt in the land of silence.
[18] When I thought, “My foot slips,”
thy steadfast love, O LORD, held me up.
[19] When the cares of my heart are many,
thy consolations cheer my soul.
[20] Can wicked rulers be allied with thee,
who frame mischief by statute?
[21] They band together against the life of the righteous,
and condemn the innocent to death.
[22] But the LORD has become my stronghold,
and my God the rock of my refuge.
[23] He will bring back on them their iniquity
and wipe them out for their wickedness;
the LORD our God will wipe them out.
